I agree with you about letting the interview flow naturally. That's how the last half of my interviews go. Often times looking at and discussing some of the candidate's code, depending on what the role is. I don't always get it perfectly right, but when I do my interviews feel good to both sides. It just feels like we spent an hour discussing a topic we both like and we both learned something new. > Maybe the author isn't as strict as I understood I didn't get the idea that he is when I read it. What I did get is that he wants lots of data points confirming the same thing. A list of standardized questions or topics is just one of those data points, right?
